Elsalvajeloco Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 The UFC beat Bellator in the overnights, but they split the audiences. Bad news for Bellator as Meltzer projects their final numbers to be around 550k-600k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 The UFC show on saturday from Brazil is on Fight Pass. I thought that the Brazil shows were supposed to be on TV in the USA and that the shows on Fight Pass were just going to be the Europe and Asia shows.

smitlick Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Here in Aus we get all of the fight pass shows live on FUEL so it sorta makes paying for fight pass a waste of time (yet I do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, college football started about 2 weeks ago. If you only had room on FS2, you might as well throw them on Fight Pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 SO with Ovreem Losing Friday night what do you think is in store for him next? I think he will get at least one more fight. Not sure if his paycheck justifies keeping him around, but with all the fights UFC puts on, he's worth having around as a recognizable name to put on cards, even with his chinny reputation. Like put him in there with a Brendan Schaub on Fight Pass in the Netherlands. If they cut him, you know Bellator picks him up and books a Catching Fire Openweight Super Hulk Grand Prix Title bout with him and King Mo or something.

Guest Edwin Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Good chance if Reem signs with Bellator they'll have him come out and confront someone and start an impromptu pull apart brawl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Lucia Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 It's really not bad for either side TBH. Meltzer wrote a great piece at MMA Fighting about it, essentially saying that the promotions seemingly have different audiences. The UFC show did more than their last two Saturdays on FS1, Bellator pulled a number nearly identical to their Friday average, both shows held up well against Smackdown and college football...no one won, no one lost. With Coker in charge, I think they'll be able to coexist a lot easier than when Rebney was running the show. But yeah, that Bonnar-Ortiz show is probably going to get slaughtered by the Cain-Werdum PPV/prelims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 WSOF is going against Mayweather/Maidana, the UFC, and a non shitty week (aka any week that is not week 2) of college football. Their main event is Marlon Moraes vs. Cody Bollinger in a now three round catchweight fight (IIRC). How does this company stop bleeding money in the future?

Elsalvajeloco Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Shaheen Al-Shatti @shaunalshatti 7m Lyoto Machida vs. C.B. Dolloway in talks for Dec. 20 in Brazil, per @arielhelwani. Nothing official yet but both sides like it. Shaheen Al-Shatti @shaunalshatti 6m Alexander Gustafsson's manager tells @arielhelwani their preference is to fight Rumble Johnson on Jan. 31’s UFC 183: Silva vs. Diaz card. Erik Fontanez @Erik_Fontanez 9m Jacare plans to fight on Dec. 6 just in case he has to step in for an injured Weidman or Belfort, per UFC Tonight.

Joe Lucia Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I can only assume someone thought they were only getting a one hour timeslot instead of a two hour one...WHOOPS. Great fight, though. Can't believe Torres was the first one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
